Verdict

BARRACUDA (6) has been most impressive of late and made it two wins in a row when successful at his latest appearance at Marburg, getting home by 2.5 metres to add to a string of top-two results. Unbeaten at this circuit and distance and looks tough to stop. SWEET ROCKY (9) registered yet another strong performance last time when he battled on bravely to miss by 3.2m last week, his third successive runner-up result at this circuit and distance. One of those was from this barrier. His hoof is on the till. RATATATTAT (5) is a player after overcoming a back row draw for a last-start win by 1.6 metres at Redcliffe. PUNTERS JEWEL (4) is better served returning to the front row.
